FX Renews ‘The Strain’ for Season 3

“The Strain” will continue to affect airwaves for another season. Deadline reports that FX has renewed the series for a third season, four episodes into its second season. The outlet notes that ratings have been down in season two, but the show remains strong in the coveted 18-49 demographic, along with showing healthy DVR gains.

“The Strain” stars Corey Stoll as Dr. Ephraim Goodweather, one of a group of humans struggling to combat a vampire epidemic. The show is executive produced by “Lost” alum Carlton Cuse, and is based on a book trilogy by Guillermo del Toro and Chuck Hogan. “The Strain” has also inspired multiple comic book adaptations, published by Dark Horse Comics.
